Sugar Free Candy
Week 2 Liquid Diet Pre-Op Blog
Dec 15, 2008
I am sorry, I promised I'd have this out there on Monday, but with it being the eve of my surgery, I was ripping and running - getting a pedicure so the nurses wouldn't freak out at my ugly toes. They did a good job on my little piggies. I thought they turned out really cute!I have about 45 minutes to go before I have to leave for the hospital (fortunately for you all, the hospital is about 5 minutes from my home) so I am going to throw it all up there.
Day 8-
Nectar Fuzzy Navel - yick - too fuzzy going down, and not the kind of warm fuzzy I was looking for - but hey it was a 23 g of protein in a shot glass literally - 5 ounces of water with one scoop - bada bing! I bought a sampler collection from Enjoy Health so I figured I'd try one each day and let everyone know what I think.
Atkins Dark Chocolate Royale Shake
Kraft Handi Snacks Sugar Free Chocolate
South Beach Tide Me Over Natural Tropical Breeze water mixer
Campbells Soup at Hand Creamy Tomato
Atkins Milk Chocolate Shake
Campbells Cream of Shrimp Soup (THIS WAS AWESOME!)
Sugar Free Double Chocolate Pudding
Day 9-
Solid food smells good but then I think about what I've got coming my way - and I don't feel so bad -
Flavor of the Day Nectar Lemon Tea - GAG - Splutter, ugh - tasted like wet cardboard with lemon seasoning.
Drowned out the cardboard with the PowerAde Grape Sports Drink (the Zero brand, of course)
Made sugar free double chocolate pudding with skim milk - ate the whole dang thing - Milk gave me 33 g of protein :)
Campbells Soup at Hand Classic Tomato - it was a busy day - and I wasn't really hungry but got my water in!
Day 10-
Flavor of the Day -Nectar Strawberry Kiwi - vaguest hint of those flavors, like a perfume almost, went down okay. Not estatic about it.
Cream of Shrimp soup - Oh my goodness - I want to thank the cook for this! Campbell's Soup! Thanks!
Creamy Tomato Parmesan Bisque - totally delish!
Atkins Milk Chocolate
Orange Jello
Day 11-
Flavor of the Day - Nectar Carribean Cooler - very odd flavor, as if someone put the wrong alcohol in this drink. Inserts nicely, but going down the hatch, you feel like you're tasting / smelling like a nail salon.
24 ounces of water down the hatch quickly - shudder!
Atkins Milk Chocolate
EAS Strawberry Cream
Special K Strawberry Kiwi protein mix
Black Cherry jello
Day 12-
My boss wasn't at work so I didn't do Flavor of the Day - she had her Gastric Bypass September 2nd by the same doctor I'm seeing today. We'd try the flavors out together, so we can figure out which one we would buy a super duper container size of based on our individual preferences. For those who don't know, I had bought a sampler pack from EnjoyHealth.com of all the flavors that Champion and Nectar make. It made a whole heck of a lot of sense to get that, considering that the smallest size container I could find was 2 pounds for almost $12 a pound!
I will return with the Flavor of the Day on December 29th, which is when I expect to be back at work.
Cheddar Cheese Soup - still da bomb! :)
Special K Ice Tea Protein - this is good for knocking out the hunger pangs. I think it's a fiber thing.
Strawberry Jello (any pudding or jello I put in here is definitely sugar free - not trying to cause anyone to stray)
Atkins Milk Chocolate shakes for breakfast and lunch.
Day 13- Getting Nervous....My day is coming!
Tried a cup of lemon puddin - eh
Tried a cup of white chocolate pudding - WOW! Jello has this flavor - along wiht sugar free Butterscotch and Cheesecake -(pssst...if your hands are getting tired of whipping up the pudding and jello and you don't have a mixer, Walmart has one of those hand blenders for like 10.88 - they work great! - BZZZZT schlorp BZZZZTT done!
Atkins Milk Chocolate (yeah, I bought several 4 packs - working through them)
Classic Tomato Soup
Water got boring, so I dumped some Fruit punch mix in it - finished my fluid quota for hte day!
Day 14- the evening before
Campbells Green Pea soup (not the one with the ham in it. I found this at Giant on Crain Hwy) - looks gross but tastes pretty good! Carbs too high, so it's not going to be on a shopping list anytime soon.
Dasani Strawberry Kiwi water - gagg but I was thirsty and worried about catching anything - and it supposedly has vitamins and whatnots in it.
Powerade Zero Grape
White Chocolate Pudding
Lots of Water - knowing I can't eat or drink anything after Midnight.
Everyone - have a wonderful day. I'll be back to update when I get home from the hospital on Wednesday.
